Archived from groups: alt>games>fallout (more info?)
Hi,
i seem to have encountered a rather annoying bug in Springfield (the
bonus mission)... The name tags of my first three characters now
occupy two slots instead of one (two duplicate tags next to each
other). The result is that i cant control my three other team members
and that i also cant manipulate any of the weapon slots. The
consequence is that i cant finish the mission (and proceed with the
game) ...
I have patch 1.27 installed and tried editing "bos.cfg" to turn of the
bonus mission.

Can someone please help me ?!

Well, I guess not.

It is a buggy game, rushed to production before it was really ready. If you are
still playing, I recommend that you always stop short of your destination on the
map and SAVE *BEFORE* STARTING EACH MISSION. This will make the game a bit less
painful to complete. Don't overwrite that saved game until you are sure that you
won't need it. Save often during the mission. Save before you get in the exit
grid. Save as soon as you exit the mission. Collect all of your saved games and
burn them to a CD. You might need them later.

That's all the help I can give you. I did a quick check of some old forums, but
they are all gone now. (I should have downloaded and saved 'em.)

I can only agree with Homer.

FOT required copious saves.

The "4 Horseman Special Encounter" was the most black hearted, mean
spirited "bug" that I remember with due fear and loathing. It may have
been "fixed" by the last patch, but I was one of the many that pre
ordered FOT and suffered the standard abuse of QA. Stopped and waited
for each patch.

After the "4 Horsemen"...
Only a timely 'save' restored my desire to finish FOT.

Try some of the fan sites. Some of the official bug listings may survive.
The "Steel Paladins" had a list of broken perks. Hated the lost
investment in broken perks.

The "bugs' that survived the patches are now
defacto game features, so you'll need to work around them.

Or stand in line to flip off Interplay and their low bid sub contracts.

I can't believe I am thinking of loading it back up and playing through it
again. I need a good new Post Apocalyptic RPG.

Try this one http://abaddon.igerard.com/index.html
I haven't played it since it was a top down console RPG though. Now it
looks kinda like Fallout.

Here's a list of post apoc games:
http://www.pamedia.com/cpgames/

There's this other game I can't remember the name of. It was originally
for some old computer but I think the author ported it to PC and might
still be working on it. It's about a guy who gets dropped in the middle
of some big prison structure. I think the cover has a picture looking
down on the place at an angle and it's like a big cement maze. It's an
RPG.

Well it doesn't yet. It still looks like a console RPG but you
apparently have a billion skills and stats so maybe it won't be mindless
repetitive combat.

It looks like it could be amusing for a little while, and certainly worth the
price. Definitely not what I'd call "fallouty" from the appearance, but I'll see
how it plays this weekend.

Thanks,
